[Der Stuber]

Strike ofg the Lehr
H. Blauzahn vs. Der Stuber Turn 15

Yet more death and destruction rains down on Rauwiller from artillery fire. With a brief lull in the fighting as both sides collect their dead and wounded, Major Bailey looks over the grim scene of what was left of the fresh engineer unit that had just arrived. These dead and wounded were not the result of enemy fire but from indirect friendly fire. "What a waste of badly needed men" the Major said to himself. The radio operator caught up with the major and handed him an urgent message from HQ. After reading it he wadded it up and threw it to the ground in disgust.
With his staff officers gathered around him the Major says, " Capt Grillo is stuck in Fenetrange under heavy counter fire and it looks like were on our own from here on out." "Make sure all the men have full ammo packs from what we have left and dig in, that includes any wounded that can still fire a rifle.
At Fenetrange, the persistent German engineers keep trying to blow the last bridge with counter attack after counter attack. Capt Grillo ask one of his Lt's " How many times has this bridge traded sides." Its now just a matter of who wants this bridge the worse". Capt Grillo then makes a calculated decision and issues new orders to his staff.
Lt Col Sanders main relief column just ran into some Mk IV's and knocked them out as he too seems to be running into stiff resistance. The whole operational battle plan drawn up at HQ has just been scrapped and no one knows it yet.
